With the rise of the Nintendo Switch some people assumed the 3DS had met its match, but this isn’t the case. The 3DS is going to continue a bit longer and with the release of games still coming this is a good thing. In fact, Atlus has just announced three new games are headed west! These three Anime inspired games are sure to scratch the RPG itch for owners of the 3DS family of systems. We have Etrian Odyssey V, Radiant Historia:Perfect Chronology, and Strange Journey Redux all headed to our shores in the next year or so!

First up is Etrian Odyssey V, players get to create a character from four different races and make them into what they want. A classic dungeon crawler where the point is to make it to through Yggdrasil’s Labyrinth and have their greatest wish granted. These games are certainly a solid addition to any RPG fan’s collection. Making your character, you can not only choose its race but also its voice and job classes which there are 10 of. This game is sure to fill a good gap of time for any willing to head into the game’s vicious labyrinth.

Next is Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology is the perfect edition to an old Nintendo DS title called Radiant Historia. In this new remake you not only get more amazing artwork from Masaki Hirooka but also more music from Yoko Shimomura. A classic RPG with a new fresh coat of paint and even a new character named Nemesia plus even more. There are even more events for players to go through with different paths of sorts. There is the Standard History, the Alternate History and the brand new Sub-History. With a game as big as this, players will certainly enjoy either returning to this world or experiencing it fresh for the first time!

Strange Journey Redux is part of the Shin Megami Tensei family of games and was originally released on the Nintendo DS. In this game you follow your character into a demon filled realm in Antarctica. Traveling through dungeons to figure out what is going on. There is also brand new story, a whole new dungeon and even the chance to hit new endings. For any fan of the series this may be just the game for you.

Etrian Odyssey V is hitting our shores this year while, Radiant Historia:Perfect Chronology and Shin Megami Tensei are coming early 2018. If you are in need of a good handheld JRPG consider picking one of these up and settle into a brand new RPG world!
